How do you Dissolve a Georgia Corporation?

Answer:
To dissolve a Georgia corporation, both a Notice of Intent to Dissolve

and Articles of Dissolution must be filed with the Secretary of State. Once dissolution has been authorized by the appropriate directors, shareholders, and/or incorporators, the Notice of Intent to Dissolve must be filed.

This notice must include the name of the corporation, the date on which dissolution authorization occurred, a statement indicating that the manner by which dissolution was approved is compliant with applicable state law, and assurance that public notice of the dissolution will be made, as required by law.

The Articles of Dissolution can be filed after the Notice of Intent to Dissolved has been filed and once adequate provisions have been made for paying all corporate debts, liabilities, and obligations. This document must include the name of the corporation, the date on which the Intent to Dissolve was filed, statements that provisions have been made for paying corporate obligations and distributing assets to shareholders, and provisions for satisfying any judgments or pending legal actions.
